"Where will you go?" Bella asked Sonya as the two of them and Edward stood at the door some four hours after she had come. "Well.." Sonya begin and stopped to think, "I'll stay here for a little while...then I think I'll make my way to my biological grandmother's house in Montana...can you believe I found her after all these years? she's 83!". Sonya smiled in a surprised way as she looked back and forth between Bella and Edward, they smiled. Bella held her head down in sudden embarrassment as she gave Sonya a quick hug and then held her at arms length, "be careful ok?" she said with honest concern, she had one of those feelings...one of those terrible feelings.
Edward's POV "Where will you go?" I stood beside Bella, looking thoughtfully between the two of them. I was as happy as I had ever been in the selfishness of my gift, so over indulgent was i once again of the fact that no one could hear MY thoughts, that i was safe and yet no one else was. I thought freely loving, as i always did, the privacy. *Why should she hide all of this? Then again it made sense to hide the abuse, if she had told the full story she would have become the prime suspect his murder...his murder, who were those vampires that attacked him? The memory was so vivid in her mind she had to have seen the entire thing from start to finish, but then if she was there why did they not also kill her?* Edward thought all these things, running the only facts he knew and all the things he heard from her open mind and tried, to no avail to piece together the things he didn't understand about her.
He looked at her, half aware of anything she was saying, he thought then of Jasper *the things he thought...her blood bothered him so extremely much, I admit it is intense but Jasper regard it as being even stronger than Bella's had been* "...she's 83!" Sonya exclaimed as if to surprise us with this number, Bella and I smiled politely knowing quite surely that Sonya's grandmother was young enough to have been my daughter*...my daughter…where is Renesmee?...with Jacob I presume… what time is it?* "Be careful ok?" Bella said as she held Sonya at arms length and they smiled at each other. "Are you SURE you want to walk to the motel?" Bella asked, Sonya smiled lovingly and laughed the slightest bit "Bella I'm sure...I like...walking it's fun" *the only thing missing from this moment was an ACTUAL Hallmark card, I mean...such a lovely sight*
Jasper's POV I didn't want to go back. Even after she had left the house i didn't want to return there and face their questioning glances, Alice would ever so gently push me to tell her why i had left, she was so sickingly gentle about it…everything...all the time. I sat beside the carcass of the dead animal, my forth, having drained it of blood and pushed it aside i sat there beside it hoping the smell of decaying flesh would stick to my nose so I wouldn't have to smell the leftover traces of her blood all over the house.* And so It seems suddenly that i hadn't made any progress at all...I attacked Bella, i nearly lost it on several occasions and now Sonya...she comes around and suddenly i am an animal again*.
But there was something bigger going on, bigger than any of their "Bad Feelings" combined could have seen coming. As Sonya begin to walk and move slowly toward town so, in the same stride, did two other individuals who's identities I'm sure you clever people could guess. They moved with exact precision and knowing just where they were going and what they would do when they got there. They intended to begin with Forks, they would take the town and bend it over backwards and then twist it around it's own side and continue to mangle it until it was nothing more than a broken kitchen utensil laying dead on a cold linoleum floor. From Forks they would take their third element and with it rule the vampire world and soon after that...the human world would fall to them but for now...they fell in stride with Sonya, on their way into town.
